SQL Databases
Savant Offers All Kinds Of SQL Database Support
Data is a crucial asset when running a business.
Day to day business operations can generate a wealth of data, ranging from customer records, business transactions and invoices, through to product inventories, payroll, and much more. This generated data can be analysed to gain insights about the workings of a business, which can be invaluable to decision-makers when setting business direction and strategy.
Given its importance, it is vital that business data is stored safely, securely and is readily available when it is needed. This is the role of a database system.

What Is A Database?
Savant Has Many Years Of Experience Managing SQL Databases
A database is a collection of structured data which is stored electronically on a computer system. This data is controlled by a database management system (DBMS) which manages access to the data, allowing it to be retrieved or updated as required. The DBMS and the underlying data are referred to as a database system (or just database).
There are many different types of database, but the most common is the relational database. In a relational database, data is structured into multiple tables. These tables are inter-related so that one table may reference another, allowing for the efficient storage, processing, and retrieval of data.
There are many different relational database products out there to choose from, such as Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL and many others. Most relational databases use Structured Query Language (SQL) to query, retrieve and update data.
